Letter to a Past Self
Keep your head up
So far you've beaten all your worst days
Even when your heart gave way
So open your eyes
It's really not that bad outside
When's the last time you watched the clouds go by
The pain in your heart
Just know it's making you stronger
Even if it lasts a little bit longer
So climb off the ledge
It's hard to know that god is dead
Everything you need's inside your head
Hey you
Don't quit
The race before it starts
And hold strong
When your life's falling apart
On 11th Ave
The night when you cried upon the shoulder
Realized you were only getting older
Trust me, you just gotta give it time
And on Elizabeth Street
You watched as Mary broke her teeth
As the sirens took you out to sea
Oh kid, you weren't born to die
Yes I'll be by your side
Hey you
Don't quit the race before it starts
And hold strong
When your life's falling apart
So far you've beaten all your worst days
Even when your heart gave way
So open your eyes
It's really not that bad outside
When's the last time you watched the clouds go by
The pain in your heart
Just know it's making you stronger
Even if it lasts a little bit longer
So climb off the ledge
It's hard to know that god is dead
Everything you need's inside your head
Hey you
Don't quit
The race before it starts
And hold strong
When your life's falling apart
On 11th Ave
The night when you cried upon the shoulder
Realized you were only getting older
Trust me, you just gotta give it time
And on Elizabeth Street
You watched as Mary broke her teeth
As the sirens took you out to sea
Oh kid, you weren't born to die
Yes I'll be by your side
Hey you
Don't quit the race before it starts
And hold strong
When your life's falling apart
